3D Turn-Based Fantasy RPG ‘Time Of Heroes – The
Arrival’ Has Begun Its Adventure On The App Store!

Independent German-based developer, smuttlewerk interactive, is
proud to announce the release of ‘Time of Heroes’, now
available on the App Store, and compatible with the Apple
iPhone®, Apple iPod touch®, and the Apple iPad®!

‘Time of Heroes’ is a 3D turn-based strategy game
with heavy roleplaying elements, which, thanks to the
groundbreaking combat system, easy accessibility and modern
graphics, enables the player to immerse himself for many hours in
the fantasy world of ‘Altland’.

Under the leadership of prince Minos, humans land on a foreign
coast in search of a new home. A short while after going on shore,
they realize that the land holds many dangers, but also new hopes
and new allies. Their old home was engulfed by ice and cold and the
old king Asterios ordered his son Minos and the majority of the
people to sail southward. 400 years before the happenings in
‘Companions’ (available by the developer exclusively
for the Apple iPad®) the northern people reach the coast of
‘Altland’. Immediately after the landing they make
acquaintance with the inhabitants of the north coast, and those
strange beings have just one thing in mind: eat all the
intruders.

In the course of their adventures the heroes of the northern
people meet the mad elf Shoto Gar and his ally, the legendary
dwarven trapper, Ung Bulmitz. These two wrongdoers control the
lower creatures of the north and without hesitation try to enslave
or destroy the newcomers.

Since thousands of years ‘Altland’ is the scene of a
terrible war, which brought the old races of the continent, the
dwarves and elves, to near extinction. The minions of the dark god
‘Detexx’, undead, demons and other horrible creatures
turn out to be the biggest threat the humans have ever faced.
Prince Minos is quick to realize that the ‘hordes of
nether’ may only be defeated by joining forces with dwarves
and elves of ‘Altland’.

The first chapter of ‘Time of Heroes – The
Arrival’ covers the arrival of the northern humans in
Altland, and the battles that followed shortly thereafter.

Because this fantastic RPG saves the games progress in the
iCloud, players can enjoy the game on different devices, be it with
the Apple iPad® on the couch, or on the road with their Apple
iPhone®, without the need to begin a new game every time
devices are switched.

‘Time Of Heroes – The Arrival’ features an
exciting story, wonderful and beautiful artwork, an absorbing
soundtrack, and a groundbreaking game- and combat-system.
Furthermore, with 6 playable heroes, 6 playable units, and more
than 25 different enemies and plenty of skill-trees and items, this
turn-based RPG will keep players immersed for a very long time.
Suitable for newcomers to the genre, as well as the hardcore
fan-base, the game also includes 3 different difficulty settings, 3
different Unit Numbers difficulty levels, in addition to its highly
intuitive and clever controls.

The developer is currently working on the next chapter of the
game, ‘Time of Heroes – The Prophet's Revenge’,
which will be available soon.
